So I tried to give it the same feel (and I hope that y'all decide that it worked). On with some specifics...I thought about this after I posted, and kicked myself for not combining the two components into one. Hindsight is 20/20, I guess.I've got to admit, for a while this was the biggest roadblock to me finishing this adventure - I was fairly sure that the Super Intelligent Awakened Monkey was going to be an adversary fot eh PCs, but every time I started trying to figure out the specifics, I kept bouncing back and forth between Gorilla Grodd and Mojo Jojo. Eventually I just said "to hell with it" and did it.It was about the same with the Bald Medusa - though I was fairly sure I would end up making her the wizard's concubine, I didn't know if I should make her sympathetic or not. And while Nemm's Stockholm Syndrome theory would work for it, I was originally going for a "broken spirit" motif, where she was so beaten down that she never beleived she would escape.Well, I hate to break it to you, but the joke's on you Nemm - its a standard magic item right out of the SRD - in fact its got a picture of it in the 3E/3.5E DMG. In fact, I thought you knew that, from you choice of words. But ruthfully, the Hand Of Glory - and the Kordites period - could probably have been anything and any group - this group simply fit the ingredient requirements (and as such, I beleive these this may have been my weakest ingredient use). And, as a side note, Kord is listed in the Players as being the god of wrestlers, and has since his beginnings always been described as a god who loved displays of physical strength, like wrestling, which (along with the appearance of the Aspect of Kord in the Miniatures Handbook) the reason I chose him for the celestial wrestler.Anyway, I hope that all the other contestants had fun, and I hope that all is well with zenld. See y'all later!and CD, come on over to the Ohio Gameday thread I linked to earlier! I'd like to meet you in person!</blockquote>
